it seems pretty clear that US economy is slowing. consumers are delaying curtailing discretionary purchases. I am now regretting my I bond purchases. I think they are lowballing the inflation rate which according to them is 1.9% now, if they are not going to be honest about offering inflation protection no point in buying holding the bonds. right now i just wish I could move the money to something like a wpc, which may offer better inflation protection than I bonds.
